Alumni pick presidents
C. Joseph Tonsing has been elected president of the Indiana University at Fort Wayne Alumni Association, and Richard W. Eckert has been elected president of the Purdue at Fort Wayne Alumni Society for 1978-79. The two alumni organizations jointly serve the 10,000 alumni of Indiana-Purdue at Fort Wayne and are affiliated respectively with the Indiana University Alumni Association and the Purdue Alumni Association. Tonsing, a 1969 graduate in business, is national sales manager for WANE-TV. He is a former vice president of the IU at Fort Wayne Alumni Association, a member of Elks Lodge 155, Knights of Columbus, Fort Wayne Ad Club and the Fort Wayne Builders Association. He and his wife, Cindy, have two children and live at 5125 Archwood Lane in Fort Wayne. Eckert, an air traffic control specialist at Baer Field, is a 1974 graduate in supervision. The former student leader has served as vice president of the Purdue at Fort Wayne Alumni Society. He lives at 6229 Lansdowne Dr., Fort Wayne. Other IU at Fort Wayne Alumni Association officers are Steven Bollier, vice president; Dean L. Metzger, secretary; Mark A. Franke, treasurer; and Robert E. A'Hearn, immediate past president. Members of the board of directors include Kathryn J. Anders, Beverly A. Richard, Mark E. Souder, (continued on page 2)
Survey scans student life
It's really hard to describe the average Indiana-Purdue at Fort Wayne student. The computer and its statistics tell us that he/she is likely to be from Allen County, likely to be around 25 years old, and likely to have been in the upper half of his/her graduating class. But those mathematical probabilities and statistics don't give us a very human picture of the student who spends his/her hours on the IPFW property. To get a better picture of students and student life on campus, the problems and the potential, Jack Ulmer, dean of student services, undertook a student life survey. The survey was prompted by a request from Indiana University President John W. Ryan and the university's board of trustees, who jointly called for an examination of student life programs on each of the eight campuses in the IU system. Survey respondents were 260 randomly selected students. Some of the more interesting results indicated that nearly 78 percent of IPFW students are employed, with nearly 55 percent of them working 20 to 40 hours a week. Only 16 percent of the survey group said that they belonged to some campus organization or identified with some university activity. The students commented, "I spend all my free time studying," or, "As a part-time student, I'm not on campus all that much." Survey results indicate that 30 percent of the respondents had little or no sense of belonging, indicating that there is much room for improvement. With this figure in mind, it is understandable that nearly 41 percent of the respondents said they spent no time on campus outside the classroom. On a more positive note, however, results indicate overwhelming support (75 percent) for an indoor, on-campus recreational facility, with basketball and swimming receiving the highest favorable response. Responding students indicated that if such a recreational facility were available on campus, many of them would participate in scheduled activities. Dean Ulmer's survey also noted numerous suggestions for the establishment of health, physical education and recreation courses, and a strong interest in having IPFW offer a minor in HPER.

Borkowski, Wilkes announce resignations
Acting Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski has accepted the position of provost at the University of South Carolina, Columbia, beginning Aug. 15. He has been on the Fort Wayne campus since August, 1975, as vice chancellor and dean of faculty. He has served as acting chancellor since March 1978, following the resignation of IPFW Chancellor Don Schwartz. Borkowski did his undergraduate work at Oberlin College, earned his master's degree in music at IU, and a PhD at West Virginia University. Commenting on his departure, Borkowski said that he has great confidence in the future of the Fort Wayne campus, located in an area with enormous potential, a fine and lovely place. Also leaving IPFW is Raymond Wilkes, assistant to the chancellor and coordinator for advancement. He will become dean of the campus, Ohio University at Lancaster, a branch of Ohio University located 30 miles southeast of Columbus with an enrollment of 1,300 students. As chief executive and administrative officer, the dean is responsible for overall administration of the campus.
A face in the crowd-Indiana University President John W. Ryan mingles with IPFW students at Commencement time. To learn more about students' ideas and experiences, Ryan and the board of trustees have commissioned a survey of student life on campus. (See story above.)
chancellor s message
The Chancellor's Column for this issue of In Review is not really a Chancellor's Column. Perhaps, as you read this, a new chancellor will be in place on the IPFW campus. But as this edition went to the printers, a chief officer for the Fort Wayne campus had not been selected. So instead of a message from the chancellor, let's recap the events in the search for a successor to former Chancellor Donald Schwartz. Dr. Raymond Pippert, IPFW professor of mathematics and executive secretary of the search and screen committee, reports that nearly 100 individuals had submitted their credentials for evaluation. From that field of 100 candidates, six were selected. On May 2 and 3, Dr. George Rapp, dean of the college of letters and science, and professor of geology and archeology at the University of Minnesota (Duluth) was on campus for a full round of interviews. He was followed by Dr. Robert H. Maier, professor of science and environmental administration at the University of Wisconson (Green Bay) on May 4 and 5. May 9 and 10 brought Karl W. Meyer, chancellor and professor of history at the University of Wisconsin (Superior) to IPFW. Dr. John W. Snyder, professor of history at Kent State University, completed the list of external candidates with his visit on May 11 and 12. Also interviewed for the position were IPFW's acting chancellor, Dr. Francis T. Borkowski, and Dr. Elmer Anderson, dean of the school of science and humanities. Faculty members, staff and students were invited to participate in the interviews of the candidates. Their evaluations were turned over to the search and screen committee, who reported their evaluation on May 15 to Indiana University President Ryan and Purdue University President Hansen. On July 12, Dr. Pippert, head of the search and screen committee announced that due to the limited time available to the committee to conduct its search last spring, the presidents have requested that the committee continue its search this fall and present further recommendations to them. Nearly two months, 100 applicants and six potential candidates later the search for an IPFW chancellor begins anew. Finally, on July 13, Dwight F. Henderson, dean of arts and letters, IPFW, was appointed acting chancellor effective Aug. 15. He replaces Francis Borkowski, who has accepted the position of provost at the University of South Carolina in Columbia. Henderson will serve in the position while efforts proceed toward the selection of a permanent chancellor for the campus.
Alumni help students' career hunt
The Indiana University-Purdue University at Fort Wayne career development and placement office has joined with the IPFW Alumni Office to start the Student/Alumni Learning Experience (SALE) program. The program will help students in their career search by putting them in touch with Indiana-Purdue alumni already established in professional careers. Head of SALE is Dr. Robert Barkhaus, IPFW director of career development and placement. "Research has shown that students usually make their career choices on the basis of contacts they have had with people in the various career areas," says Barkhaus. "Through this program, we're trying to increase the students' probability of making a well-founded decision by exposing them to professionals already working in their areas of interest." Over 30 IPFW alumni in the Fort Wayne area have volunteered to allow students to visit their place of employment, to counsel students informally or to provide part-time work experience. Dr. Barkhaus sees SALE as an important addition to his office's services. "We've counseled the student on their choice of courses, and the university has provided the tools to get to graduation day. After graduation, we help them find jobs through our placement office. An important part of the educational process is trying to help students decide what career might best fit their personality, interest and abilities. That's where the Student/Alumni Learning Experience program comes in." Alumni who might be interested in volunteering for this project are invited to contact the alumni office for details.

Nally wins Business Alumni Award
Hiram Nally, BS '68, president of Peoples Trust Bank in Fort Wayne, received the first annual Distinguished Business Alumnus Award during IPFW's 1978 Annual Business Conference, sponsored by the division of business and economics and the IU at Fort Wayne Alumni Association. A native of Searcy, Ark., Nally joined Peoples Trust as a personal credit specialist in 1964 and later served as vice president. He assumed the bank's presidency in 1977 and is a director of the Downtown Fort Wayne Association and the Horizons Council. This year's Annual Business Conference was the most successful yet, attracting over 350 business leaders and alumni from the Northeastern Indiana region. The program featured Arthur Zeikel, president of Merrill Lynch Asset Management Company, as keynote speaker. Presented at the conference was the first annual Corporate Merit Citation, awarded to the Zollner Corporation of Fort Wayne. Moving to Fort Wayne in 1931, the Zollner Corporation has expanded its operations from its original 16 employees to today's work force of 1,650. Zollner pistons are sold throughout the world in both original equipment and replacement markets. The Fourth Annual Business Conference is presently scheduled for March 8, 1979. More details will be available during the 1978-79 academic year.

Student life (continued from page 1)
One outgrowth of the student life survey was the development and implementation of a "free period" during which no classes would be scheduled. Beginning this fall, an experimental free period will allow student organizations to hold meetings, facilitate the presentation of music and drama convocation programs and to help alleviate the job/school conflict. The new free period will be offered on a trial basis. Survey results indicate great student interest in the operation of a campus radio station. WIPU FM began operations this summer, and it is hoped that students will take an active role in programming when they return to classes this fall. Dean Ulmer points out that the student life survey seems to reveal a great deal of apathy among IPFW students. "Student leaders," he says, "perennially complain about the lack of student support for campus events. In reality, quite the contrary is true." He continues, "The word apathy suggests lack of involvement, a listless condition. This does not apply to 75 percent of our students who in their three world environments (family, work, school) expend far higher energy levels than do their residential campus counterparts." Jack Ulmer concluded his student life survey with a story. It would be difficult to improve on his closing: There is one story that Kentucky horse traders love to tell which is perhaps analogous to a college education on a residential campus versus one at a commuter campus. It is about a man who owned a dog and wanted to sell it. His asking price was $50,000. The dog was a nondescript mongrel. He was mangy and ill-kept, and he was mean. Nobody believed that the man could unload him at any price. But one day the man told his friends that he had sold the animal-for the full $50,000. "In cash?" asked his stunned listeners. "Well, not exactly," he said. "But I traded him for two $25,000 cats." The analogy is simple. What commuter students lack in student life experiences on a residential campus, is countered by the experiences they have of daily integrating classroom theory with the real world of work as gained through their jobs and older, mature classmates. In short, they are reasonably well prepared at the time of graduation to adjust and adapt to the world of reality because they have been living in this world throughout their college careers-an advantage that most research totally overlooks. Consequently, we do not plan to trade what we have for two cats!"

Survey scans student life
It's really hard to describe the average Indiana-Purdue at Fort Wayne student. The computer and its statistics tell us that he/she is likely to be from Allen County, likely to be around 25 years old, and likely to have been in the upper half of his/her graduating class. But those mathematical probabilities and statistics don't give us a very human picture of the student who spends his/her hours on the IPFW property. To get a better picture of students and student life on campus, the problems and the potential, Jack Ulmer, dean of student services, undertook a student life survey. The survey was prompted by a request from Indiana University President John W. Ryan and the university's board of trustees, who jointly called for an examination of student life programs on each of the eight campuses in the IU system. Survey respondents were 260 randomly selected students. Some of the more interesting results indicated that nearly 78 percent of IPFW students are employed, with nearly 55 percent of them working 20 to 40 hours a week. Only 16 percent of the survey group said that they belonged to some campus organization or identified with some university activity. The students commented, "I spend all my free time studying," or, "As a part-time student, I'm not on campus all that much." Survey results indicate that 30 percent of the respondents had little or no sense of belonging, indicating that there is much room for improvement. With this figure in mind, it is understandable that nearly 41 percent of the respondents said they spent no time on campus outside the classroom. On a more positive note, however, results indicate overwhelming support (75 percent) for an indoor, on-campus recreational facility, with basketball and swimming receiving the highest favorable response. Responding students indicated that if such a recreational facility were available on campus, many of them would participate in scheduled activities. Dean Ulmer's survey also noted numerous suggestions for the establishment of health, physical education and recreation courses, and a strong interest in having IPFW offer a minor in HPER.

Borkowski, Wilkes announce resignations
Acting Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski has accepted the position of provost at the University of South Carolina, Columbia, beginning Aug. 15. He has been on the Fort Wayne campus since August, 1975, as vice chancellor and dean of faculty. He has served as acting chancellor since March 1978, following the resignation of IPFW Chancellor Don Schwartz. Borkowski did his undergraduate work at Oberlin College, earned his master's degree in music at IU, and a PhD at West Virginia University. Commenting on his departure, Borkowski said that he has great confidence in the future of the Fort Wayne campus, located in an area with enormous potential, a fine and lovely place. Also leaving IPFW is Raymond Wilkes, assistant to the chancellor and coordinator for advancement. He will become dean of the campus, Ohio University at Lancaster, a branch of Ohio University located 30 miles southeast of Columbus with an enrollment of 1,300 students. As chief executive and administrative officer, the dean is responsible for overall administration of the campus.
A face in the crowd-Indiana University President John W. Ryan mingles with IPFW students at Commencement time. To learn more about students' ideas and experiences, Ryan and the board of trustees have commissioned a survey of student life on campus. (See story above.)
chancellor s message
The Chancellor's Column for this issue of In Review is not really a Chancellor's Column. Perhaps, as you read this, a new chancellor will be in place on the IPFW campus. But as this edition went to the printers, a chief officer for the Fort Wayne campus had not been selected. So instead of a message from the chancellor, let's recap the events in the search for a successor to former Chancellor Donald Schwartz. Dr. Raymond Pippert, IPFW professor of mathematics and executive secretary of the search and screen committee, reports that nearly 100 individuals had submitted their credentials for evaluation. From that field of 100 candidates, six were selected. On May 2 and 3, Dr. George Rapp, dean of the college of letters and science, and professor of geology and archeology at the University of Minnesota (Duluth) was on campus for a full round of interviews. He was followed by Dr. Robert H. Maier, professor of science and environmental administration at the University of Wisconson (Green Bay) on May 4 and 5. May 9 and 10 brought Karl W. Meyer, chancellor and professor of history at the University of Wisconsin (Superior) to IPFW. Dr. John W. Snyder, professor of history at Kent State University, completed the list of external candidates with his visit on May 11 and 12. Also interviewed for the position were IPFW's acting chancellor, Dr. Francis T. Borkowski, and Dr. Elmer Anderson, dean of the school of science and humanities. Faculty members, staff and students were invited to participate in the interviews of the candidates. Their evaluations were turned over to the search and screen committee, who reported their evaluation on May 15 to Indiana University President Ryan and Purdue University President Hansen. On July 12, Dr. Pippert, head of the search and screen committee announced that due to the limited time available to the committee to conduct its search last spring, the presidents have requested that the committee continue its search this fall and present further recommendations to them. Nearly two months, 100 applicants and six potential candidates later the search for an IPFW chancellor begins anew. Finally, on July 13, Dwight F. Henderson, dean of arts and letters, IPFW, was appointed acting chancellor effective Aug. 15. He replaces Francis Borkowski, who has accepted the position of provost at the University of South Carolina in Columbia. Henderson will serve in the position while efforts proceed toward the selection of a permanent chancellor for the campus.
Alumni help students' career hunt
The Indiana University-Purdue University at Fort Wayne career development and placement office has joined with the IPFW Alumni Office to start the Student/Alumni Learning Experience (SALE) program. The program will help students in their career search by putting them in touch with Indiana-Purdue alumni already established in professional careers. Head of SALE is Dr. Robert Barkhaus, IPFW director of career development and placement. "Research has shown that students usually make their career choices on the basis of contacts they have had with people in the various career areas," says Barkhaus. "Through this program, we're trying to increase the students' probability of making a well-founded decision by exposing them to professionals already working in their areas of interest." Over 30 IPFW alumni in the Fort Wayne area have volunteered to allow students to visit their place of employment, to counsel students informally or to provide part-time work experience. Dr. Barkhaus sees SALE as an important addition to his office's services. "We've counseled the student on their choice of courses, and the university has provided the tools to get to graduation day. After graduation, we help them find jobs through our placement office. An important part of the educational process is trying to help students decide what career might best fit their personality, interest and abilities. That's where the Student/Alumni Learning Experience program comes in." Alumni who might be interested in volunteering for this project are invited to contact the alumni office for details.

Nally wins Business Alumni Award
Hiram Nally, BS '68, president of Peoples Trust Bank in Fort Wayne, received the first annual Distinguished Business Alumnus Award during IPFW's 1978 Annual Business Conference, sponsored by the division of business and economics and the IU at Fort Wayne Alumni Association. A native of Searcy, Ark., Nally joined Peoples Trust as a personal credit specialist in 1964 and later served as vice president. He assumed the bank's presidency in 1977 and is a director of the Downtown Fort Wayne Association and the Horizons Council. This year's Annual Business Conference was the most successful yet, attracting over 350 business leaders and alumni from the Northeastern Indiana region. The program featured Arthur Zeikel, president of Merrill Lynch Asset Management Company, as keynote speaker. Presented at the conference was the first annual Corporate Merit Citation, awarded to the Zollner Corporation of Fort Wayne. Moving to Fort Wayne in 1931, the Zollner Corporation has expanded its operations from its original 16 employees to today's work force of 1,650. Zollner pistons are sold throughout the world in both original equipment and replacement markets. The Fourth Annual Business Conference is presently scheduled for March 8, 1979.

Student life (continued from page 1)
One outgrowth of the student life survey was the development and implementation of a "free period" during which no classes would be scheduled. Beginning this fall, an experimental free period will allow student organizations to hold meetings, facilitate the presentation of music and drama convocation programs and to help alleviate the job/school conflict. The new free period will be offered on a trial basis. Survey results indicate great student interest in the operation of a campus radio station. WIPU FM began operations this summer, and it is hoped that students will take an active role in programming when they return to classes this fall. Dean Ulmer points out that the student life survey seems to reveal a great deal of apathy among IPFW students. "Student leaders," he says, "perennially complain about the lack of student support for campus events. In reality, quite the contrary is true." He continues, "The word apathy suggests lack of involvement, a listless condition. This does not apply to 75 percent of our students who in their three world environments (family, work, school) expend far higher energy levels than do their residential campus counterparts." Jack Ulmer concluded his student life survey with a story. It would be difficult to improve on his closing: There is one story that Kentucky horse traders love to tell which is perhaps analogous to a college education on a residential campus versus one at a commuter campus. It is about a man who owned a dog and wanted to sell it. His asking price was $50,000. The dog was a nondescript mongrel. He was mangy and ill-kept, and he was mean. Nobody believed that the man could unload him at any price. But one day the man told his friends that he had sold the animal-for the full $50,000. "In cash?" asked his stunned listeners. "Well, not exactly," he said. "But I traded him for two $25,000 cats." The analogy is simple. What commuter students lack in student life experiences on a residential campus, is countered by the experiences they have of daily integrating classroom theory with the real world of work as gained through their jobs and older, mature classmates. In short, they are reasonably well prepared at the time of graduation to adjust and adapt to the world of reality because they have been living in this world throughout their college careers-an advantage that most research totally overlooks. Consequently, we do not plan to trade what we have for two cats!"
